| - We have been waiting to try this place since they opened and we finally got the chance. Sadly, I was less than impressed. For starters, we checked in on Yelp so we would have a minimal wait. When we got there, they hardly have any parking and my husband actually dropped me off at the door to check in & he went and parked, all the way in front of Sprouts which is behind the restaurant. And this wasn't because they were so slammed, they just don't have much parking.
Once I checked in, I quickly realized that they have zero space inside or outside to wait for your table. The front door is approximately 8 inches from the door to the patio that people are constantly going in and out of so unless you can squeeze in that room you will either be in the way of the patio door or the front door. And they don't have benches outside so even if you wait outside, you will be blocking the door.
We didn't have to wait an insane amount it time, maybe 10-15 minutes. When we were seated, they sat us at a table right by the other patio door. When I mean right by the door, I mean my husband could have held to door open for them from his chair. This meant that every single time someone opened that door, which felt like was about every 20 seconds, a huge gust of 108 degree air got blown all over us. It felt like a flame thrower was lightly toasting us. When the waitress came to get our drink order, my husband asked if we could move tables. She said yes and moved us to a table across the hall, about three feet away from the original table. We still got a gust of hot air every time that damn door opened, slightly less hot than before, but still warm. Guys, I never got cooler than lightly sweating. Even my bean pole of a daughter complained multiple times that it was hot.
Moving onto the food/drinks. I ordered the Cherry Squirt cocktail, it was alright, nothing special. My husband ordered a beer by Sun Up called White Russian. When he ordered he purposely said 'White Russian by Sun Up.' The waitress brought him an actual White Russian cocktail. When my husband told her that he wanted the beer, she clearly had no idea what he was talking about.
My daughter and I both got Mac & cheese, it was okay. About one third of the way through it I couldn't eat anymore. My daughters was the same way, she didn't care for it. I won't put to much stock in that because even though she is definitely a Mac & cheese loving kid, this was definitely creamier than she usually likes so I can't say I'm surprised she wasn't a fan. My husband got the Mac & cheese burger, he said the burger patty and bun were decent but he didn't think the mac & cheese was flavorful enough to add anything.
